About Our Foundation
DR OPARA Healthcare Foundation is a non-governmental organization purely conceived after over 20yrs of medical practice within the rural communities. These rural communities house mainly the poor and the needy. Almost all these communities lack the basic health care facilities and where they exist, they lack the required medical manpower such as Doctors and Nurses this is mainly because most medical experts prefer to live and work in the cities.
With little to no power, no clean source of water, or a regular supply of drugs. We take it upon ourselves to stand in this gap
Our Programs
1.We are providing free medical outreaches to those in need, especially within our rural communities.
2.We provide free antenatal and postnatal services with the goal of reducing maternal and neonatal deaths
3.Providing counseling to HIV positive couples with the goal of breaking the practice of none disclosure of HIV status to partners for fear of abandonment
4.We partner with some hospitals in providing antiretroviral drugs to HIV pregnant mothers to prevent mother to child transmission.
5.We also assist those who need specialized medical care in assessing the right places at affordable costs.
We provide a full scholarship to the children of the poor who desires to study Nursing within Nigeria. We also assist those who desire to work abroad with the goal of lifting their families out of the poverty line.
We assist our rural communities in establishing and equipping basic health care centers with the goal of reducing the cost of healthcare.
